Truman.<\/p>\n<p>Israel claimed it intercepted the missile reaching Israel.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The operation against the aircraft carrier was carried out with a large number of drones and guided missiles when the American forces were preparing for a massive air attack against Yemen, he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our naval operation was also successful and neutralized the American air attack.\u00a0We have improved the readiness of our combat forces to face the threats of the Zionist enemy,&#8221; Saree said, the Mehr news agency reported.<\/p>\n<p>Yemen&#8217;s Ansarallah has announced it will not stop air attacks on Israel otherwise the Zionist regime ends its genocidal war against the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and end the blockade on the enclave.<\/p>\n<p>Israel\u2019s war in Gaza\u00a0has so far killed more than 45,500 people, over half of them women and children, according to the territory\u2019s Health Ministry. The Health Ministry said Monday that Israeli airstrikes and bombardments had killed at least 27 people over the past day alone.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Israelis have found it only takes one Yemeni missile in the dead of night to wreak havoc and upend feelings of security.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"background-color:white\">Eyal Pinko, a senior research fellow at the Begin-Sadat Center for Strategic Studies at Bar-Ilan University and a former intelligence unit head in the Israeli navy, says, \u201cUK and US attacks and even previous Israel attacks did not do much to make a dent\u201d in Yemenis\u2019 resolve to retaliate against Israel\u2019s war on Gaza.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"background-color:white\"><span style=\"background-color:white\">On Friday, military analyst Amos Harel declared that Israel \u201cfinds itself in a new war,\u201d in which Ansarallah \u201cremains the primary threat to the center of the country, with zero effort from their point of view,\u201d<\/span> the Christian Science Monitor reported.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"background-color:white\">Unlike strikes against neighboring Gaza or Lebanon, such a mission entails \u201can enormous effort\u201d and intricate planning, Harel noted in the newspaper Haaretz. The jets require delicate midair refueling to reach their targets.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe United States has made over 50 attacks on Houthi (Ansarallah) infrastructure and missile infrastructure and has not yet stopped missiles from being launched, so I don\u2019t think the numbers are the issue,\u201d says Professor Shaul Chorev, a retired rear admiral in the Israeli navy who heads The Institute for Maritime Policy and Strategy in Haifa.<\/p>\n<p>Jonathan Spyer, director of research at The Middle East Forum, a Philadelphia-based think tank, says,\u00a0\u201cThere is no simple solution for the Houthis because of the nature of who they are. &#8230; They operate according to a different calculus\u201d from Israel\u2019s other foes.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tehrantimes.com\/news\/508120\/Yemen-fires-missiles-at-Ben-Gurion-Airport-Jerusalem-power-plant\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yemen\u2019s armed forces have carried out two operations targeting two Israeli sites and a US warship, Yemen\u2019s military spokesman Brigadier General Yahya Saree said in a statement on Tuesday.
